2017 Mazda 3 Hatchback: Best Used Fun Compact Car? | Full Review, Driving Impressions

[@donjohnson2428]

Nice review! I’ve been on the fence between buying a used 17 or 18 hatchback or going brand new so it was good to hear your perspective on this generation.

[@wujolie]

Thank you! Let me know if you have any questions

[@cwclarkephotos9551]

It’s a great car

[@progeniesofthetoiletpaperh6433]

same, looking to buy one this year!

[@gavinwu9692]

Great review again. Looking forward to those detailing videos

[@wujolie]

Thank you!!

[@kalark]

Great video! I just purchased a 2016 Mazda3 S Grand touring and I am in love with it! Such a fun little hatchback

[@wujolie]

Thank you! And yes, enjoy!!

[@spartanV48]

Really like your review style! Feels natural and relatable compared to many car reviewers. I owned a Gen4 Mazda3 and ended up selling it for a GR86, then sold that for a ND2 Miata. I wish I got the Gen3 Mazda3 as I probably would have kept that car due to it having a good balance between engaging driving and practicality

[@wujolie]

Thanks so much! Wow you’ve gone thru quite many great cars. I need to get my hands on the Miata before it gets electrified of some sort by ~2026!

[@spartanV48]

@@wujolie Would highly recommend plus you have the Pacific Coast Highway near SF, so you get to take advantage of a good windy road with a beautiful view. ND3 should be coming out soon too

great review! i’ve got a 17 sedan myself (also 2.5 but with the manual) and it’s been really fun. idk if it’s a canadian-spec thing but mine still has the CD player under the climate controls hahah.

[@wujolie]

Thank you so much! Oh wow CD player! And this car is definitely really fun. The automatic was already such a joy to drive

Sedan con caja manual y suspensión independiente, una delicia.

[@kellyc2355]

Great video! It was cool to see you review a car in SF! Seems like a reliable car and I liked the info behind Mazdas philosophy

[@wujolie]

Thanks for watching again and the feedback :) stay tuned for more!

[@jimbobby629]

What would car do you prefer, gen 3 or gen 4?

[@wujolie]

Thanks for watching! Gen 3 for the driving experience, gen 4 for exterior and interior design! That new design is unmatched. It would be perfect if there’s a blend of gen 3 and 4

[@jimbobby629]

@Jolie Wu The Gen 4 lacks the independent rear suspension the prior gens had, so maybe that's a factor in why the gen 3 is more nimble to drive. Have a 2016 gen 3 and am looking to upgrade.

[@wujolie]

@@jimbobby629 yeah I agree. I have a sedan too so its a little different. But the design is so nice… You should test drive it and lmk what you think.

[@nearsite]

Ur on the right?

[@wujolie]

I may have forgotten to flip my video. The driver’s seat is on the left, if that’s what you mean
